Your Sig. should include the Year, Make and Model plus any Mods. you have.


Looks Like I will have to update my Sig soon....I didnt think a 1990 Mazda 323 or a 2000 Astrovan would count.

I do have to say that the LB7 does but the V6 in the astro to shame

Sounds like you got a D-max. Welcome and congratulations. You won't want to drive anything but the d-max which will make you want to drive it more. "Hook, line and sinker".

The Truck is finally in my hands It was quite a long weekend waiting for everything to get into order... I originally thought I would have the truck on Friday.



I zeroed the computer milage and did a quick 10 K test thru the city (stop and go// waiting at lights) and managed to get an average of 13.9L/100km... I know its not a fair test but still pretty respectable! You have to remember I am switching from an Astrovan which was getting 17L/100KM

hmm.. this is a US site,

13.9L/100KM = 16.9 MPG
17L/100KM = 13.8 MPG

or I guess I could stick to my Canadian heritage and convert using Imperial Gallons then it would be 20.3mpg//16.6mpg

I am sure I will have more questions soon, but until then thanks for all the advice that lead up to the truck!
